It's important to talk about loving yourself and looking at your tragedies and the stuff that makes you grow. |
It's my job, to create a fantasy. |

It's the same scene, but because it's in color, certainly it has a little more of the shock value, |
Of all ways to do a remake, ... I think Gus chose the most incredible way, because what he's saying is 'I honor you.' This is like more praise to Hitchcock than anybody who would take another film, and remake it, and try to make it different. Gus is saying, 'Not only am I not going to make it different, I'm going to honor you every step of the way.' |
The therapists didn't know, ... The therapists knew about my abuse. The therapists knew about the shame I was enduring. ... But the therapists never knew the extent of the world that I created to get out of the shame of my abuse. |

Vince is one of the few people I think who's willing to go into that duplicity in himself, and that insanity, and say, 'You know what? Now I'll show it to you.' I think that we're going to love his Norman Bates, because he's showing you himself in ways that nobody else would have the courage to do. It's an amazing performance. |
You know, so many things get redone -- music gets remade, Shakespeare gets remade, |
